Prince Albert Guest House

Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We were able to find street-​parking for free. Rooms were charming and had an oceanview and well located near all the action! Breakfast was included but I didn’t partake so can’t say anything about that. All in all no complaints at all!

Can’t say enough good things about this place. Bob, Stephen and of course Shelby (their yellow lab) were nothing but warm welcomes and smiles.
Are room was beautiful and clean. Really felt like home! The open kitchen was a plus, and super convenient.
Breakfast was included in are stay, and was delightful. I would definitely stay here again, and have already recommended it to many family and friends.

Stayed over an August weekend at the Prince Albert House with a large group of friends, and we could not have asked for a better accommodation. The rooms were clean, well decorated, and comfortable. Plenty of passerbys stopped to take photos of the beautiful flowerbeds and classic sign in front of the guesthouse. Stephen and Bob were friendly, hospitable, and thoughtful. There is even a commutal computer inside for the guests’ convenience.
I also loved its central location — 10 minutes walk from the pier, and right next to Joe Coffee & Espresso bar, which is a local favorite and serves amazing latte and breakfast.
My first trip to Provincetown turned out to be a wonderful experience — and I have much to thank for in the prince albert house. Would definitely come again and recommend to anyone in a heartbeat.

This is my fourth year summer staying in Provincetown, and I was truly blown away by the experience Stephen and Bob provided at the Prince Albert. I brought a very large group with me — which isn’t always easy to manage — but both were extremely professional and highly accommodating in working out the logistics months ahead of time. The décor is unique and every room individualized, so it truly feels like a home. We had to endure a rainy weekend — two days in a row — but still had a really great time thanks to the Prince Albert. I stayed in Room 1, which had a window view to the front patio, so I could always see when others were congregating outside to hang out on the slick furniture. When we got back from a night out on Friday night, Stephen very thoughtfully brought out a pack of water bottles to keep us hydrated (even though it was well past midnight). Shelby the dog is adorable and very well behaved. We would absolutely stay here again.

I stayed at the Prince Albert with a group of friends last weekend, and the Prince Albert was by far the nicest place we’ve stayed in our 4 years of summer Ptown trips. The rooms were clean, beautiful, and spacious, and most had either large windows or some sort of patio/​balcony, which I loved. The backyard/​patio area was lovely, and the hot tub was awesome. The patio area in front of the house was also well-​kept, comfortable, and a great place to rest or meet up with friends. Prince Albert is also very close to a public beach and a number of shops and restaurants. The hosts, Stephen and Bob, were very friendly and helpful! I will gladly stay at the Prince Albert again!

Stayed there this past weekend with a group of friends and the Prince Albert was all we could have hoped for and more! Our room was very spacious and the bed was more comfortable than my own! The garden and back patio are beautiful. Not to mention the delicious breakfast, friendly staff, and lovely owners. And of course their dog, Shelby! If you are in P-​town, you won’t regret a stay at the Prince Albert.

This was my second time in Ptown, and it easily exceeded any and all expectations I came with. Not only was every aspect of the house spacious and immaculate, the decorations added so much personality and warmth to the home, allowing our entire group to feel welcome and comfortable during our stay there. Additionally, the hot tub, patios, and hot breakfasts were phenomenal — hot tub and hanging out on the patios at night, then waking up to a delicious belgian waffle with fruit and syrup was unreal.

I’ve been to Provincetown many times and stayed overnight in a variety of places, but I can honestly say that the Prince Albert house was the most memorable and pleasant stay I have had there. The landlords are the nicest people, breakfast is delicious, and the hot tub is just heavenly! The place has a quaint look with modern amenities. It is beautifully decorated, the house is extremely clean, and the house-​keeping staff is really on top of their game; not to mention the super-​cute and super-​friendly dog! It was also nice to be right across from the Boatslip for the Tea Dance on Saturday =) I highly recommend this house, and I would love to stay there again for my future trips!

It was my first time to Provincetown and I could not have asked for a better experience. We went with a group of people and stayed at both houses. The landlords provided us with a delicious continental breakfast each morning (with fresh waffles and fruit!). I stayed in Room 10, which was called the «Cottage» and was right next to the amazing hot tub. Being from the city, I could not have asked for a more beautiful flowery porch, well curated room, and relaxing weekend at Prince Albert. I would definitely recommend staying here if you’re visiting Provincetown.

I’ve stayed in 3 other hotels/b&bs in Ptown and this one is my favorite by FAR. The buildings themselves are beautiful and well-​kept. The owners, Stephen and Bob, are incredibly gracious hosts who are clearly pros at their job and made our large group felt welcome. There is a hot tub in the backyard to soak, a beautiful patio to have drinks, and a mild-​mannered sweetheart of a dog to pet. Plus, the breakfast is delicious, with a waffle iron, homemade carrot cake muffins, fresh fruit, yogurt, toast, and a Nespresso machine for the coffee fanatics. I couldn’t be happier or more impressed with my stay.

This was my first stay at the Prince Albert House in Provincetown and I had a wonderful experience there! I was with a very large group of friends, in fact, we took up all of the rooms in both houses. Given such a large group of people, Bob and Stephen were extremely accommodating.
So to begin, the house was kept in great condition and has character to add. I stayed in one of the rooms with a King-​sized bed with an attached bathroom, and it was one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in — it even had a tempurpedic mattress! The room was very clean and the room service was great — we got extra towels when needed when we used ours up in the hot tub in the back (yes, there’s a hot tub in the back!). I also enjoy the decorations which makes this house like a house and not a hotel where everything is looking the same. In addition, the many many plants and flowers outside the house adds to the feel esp. when you’re hanging outside enjoying the weather and people watching
Second, the breakfast service was also great and the guy who made the breakfast did a wonderful job. The breakfast included waffles, fresh fruit, bagels, eggs, coffee and orange juice — nothing out of the ordinary but still a meal that hits the spot when you’re tired in the morning. The food was fresh and good.
Overall, I would return here in an instant and would recommend this place to anyone else who wants to stay here as well!

I stayed here with a bunch of friends for a weekend, and it was a really lovely experience. The included breakfast is a nice touch, and Bob and Stephen were exceptionally friendly and accommodating. There’s also plenty of room in both the front and back of the property to lounge around in between or in preparation for excursions to the rest of PTown. Did I mention that there’s a hot tub in the back?
I would definitely stay here again.

I just stayed here for the weekend with a very (VERY) large group — we took over both houses. I stayed with two friends in the cottage, i.e. room 10, which made us feel super fancy as it had its own entrance and was right next to the hot tub and outdoor sitting area.
I’ve stayed in several large group houses before throughout the US and this was my favorite experience. The warmth of the owners, the sweetness of their adorable dog Shelby, and the comfort and beauty of the surroundings all made for a great stay. The largeness of our crew and cabin fever due to rain made us kind of a rowdy crowd, but Bob and Stephen were so sweet and understanding. Also — Bob has the best smile!
It was the perfect location to go to the famous (notorious?!?) tea dance at Boatslip, eat fantastic seafood all weekend long, and wander the adorable town. I’d stay there again in a heartbeat, especially if part of a large event.
I have to give a special shoutout to the décor — it was quirky, carefully curated, and stunning. I absolutely loved the art on the walls, which varied from rustic seaside boats to the considerably more interesting — you’ll just have to see it :) A lot of thought and love was clearly put into this house. Also, I believe the beds were tempurpedic!!! They really care about the comfort of their guests.
One word of advice — the proximity to the hot tub = mosquitoes galore. Bring bug repellent and bathe yourself in it. Let me tell you though, the hot tub is so completely, totally worth it.

My best friend and I stay here every time we visit Ptown. The rooms are large enough to hang out in, there was a good size fridge to hold our snacks and liquor. The gentleman who run the place are cordial and don’t linger around. The breakfast spread in the morning is a really nice touch. Coffee was great!
I could definitely see this being a nice place to rent out if you were housing wedding guests or having a group vacation.

I am just back from a 7 night stay at the PA in room 15. I am a simple traveler and this place had just what I needed from a guest house at a beach/​resort town. I don’t spend much time in the room or examining the décor so I just don’t care what the furnishings are like (btw — they are just fine here). Quirky? Sure! Ptown is an artists colony so be prepared for ‘not the norm’! Service… yup, they got that. House staff was friendly enough when I saw them — again, I didn’t sit there waiting for them so we rarely met but they did a great job of making up my room. Breakfast was just fine, plentiful, all you can eat with hard boiled eggs, bagels, spreads, basic waffles, coffee drinks, yogurt, fruit, etc. A good basic breakfast right in your own guest house.
I was, admittedly, concerned about the size of my room when I booked. But room 15 is GREAT for a single traveler who wants their own space close to everywhere you want to be. There is a 6 draw cabinet — small draws — but perfect for some summer clothing. Also a bed table with one draw and a limited hanger rack behind the door. I would not bring a steamer trunk full of winter clothing and think I could ‘unpack’ fully. I also have a suitcase that collapses and can be stored under the bed — a good thing since floor space is limited. The bed was wonderful and I slept very well in it. the window AC unit works GREAT since this is a small room. It was a quiet room too but I liked the white noise of the AC. The bathroom is, again, fully adequate with room to move and dry off after a shower. The shower stall was just fine with good water pressure.
There is a Jacuzzi out back and lots of yard space if you should want to ‘hang out’ there and relax.
The owners were thoroughly pleasant and helpful when needed them.

Prince Albert consists of two side-​by-​side houses located smack in the middle of Commercial Street in Provincetown. Though my room was well kept, clean and stocked with all the necessary amenities, it was also a bit cramped (Room 3). The bed was far too big for the room, the mattress a little too soft for my back, but overall I was comfortable, and if for nothing else, the small quarters forced me to venture outside and enjoy P-​Town (which is what you should do anyway).
The only thing I didn’t care for was the noise and loud banging sounds at different times of the night. Doors were slammed with loud force and the sound reverberated throughout the property. Not good if you’re trying to sleep.
Bob is a friendly and accommodating manager. Take notice that he always speaks with a cheery smile. The man can talk about mainlining crackheads, yet his jovial delivery will have you believe the subject is as endearing as apple picking. I mean this as a compliment. It’s nice to be greeted and hosted by someone with such a warm and positive attitude.
This place is pet friendly, and the breakfast every morning is a decent spread and a nice way to get to know the other guests. Overall, PA is a good B&B

Love our stayed there.
The owners are super friendly and very accommodating.
The location is perfect.
Perfect for pets.

We stayed there a couple of summers ago for a friend’s wedding.
A bunch of us rented a group of rooms (essentially one of the two buildings), and the number of rooms that we had expected to be ready for us weren’t, and the rooms were much smaller than anticipated. Our price-​per-​person ended up being much higher than we’d planned, because there was no way that we could fit into the rooms that the place planned for us to stay in.
The staff were pleasant if indifferent, but the beds were way too soft (and the rollaway beds barely fit into the rooms, and were like hammocks) and the waffles were dreadful.
The people who’ve posted reviews that include the great waffles have no palates: they’re bisquick with fake butter and artificial syrup.
The décor was quirky-​precious-​tacky (it was as if it had been decorated by a Queer Eye’s blind-​but-​still-​gay friend) and was flamboyantly bad. Those aren’t central to my experience in a B&B, though. It was the quality of sleep and breakfast that brought the rating for me way down.
Also: it’s really loud there.

Beautiful rooms and really nice staff/​owners. There are paintings throughout the properties and each room has an identity of its own. Docked 1 star because we heard EVERY person that came in and out of the building and all the partying outside because we were in room 2, which is next to the entrance. Their waffles are great and the coffee is greater! They are also pet friendly and centrally located in the thick of it all.

My goals upon visiting P-​town for Memorial Day weekend were these:
a) find a great place to park my ass and people watch.
b) be in the center of it all.
c) have a decent breakfast that i could shuffle to in my bare feet without feeling like a hillbilly.
d) not have to deal with 21-​year olds once I left the bar to relax in my room.
These were all met when I stayed at the Prince Albert. Not only that, but I had a clean, comfortable room and bathroom, friendly owners with a cool dog, and a bed that I’d recommend to my 85-​year old grandmother with arthritis. If you want to guarantee yourself a pleasant time in P-​town then don’t get drunk and punch a police officer AND stay at the Prince Albert.
